If you have passed courses before your current enrolment you might qualify for a compulsory credit transfer. If not you can apply for a credit transfer in order to have your prior study activities be part of your ITU programme.
Compulsory Credit transfer
If you have acquired skills at a similar level and with similar content through previously uncompleted study programme, you will have already had to include this in your application. Based on your information, we will determine if you qualify for a compulsory credit transfer.
{Compulsory}
Credit transfer
{CROSSDIT}A credit transfer will be awarded if the study board of your programme considers your previously acquired skills to be equivalent to skills students will acquire in the current programme. You can apply to have credits transferred for both mandatory courses and elective modules.
When applying for a credit transfer related to elective modules, you do not need to describe the ITU electives.
If you have passed a course during your BSc programme that is similar to a course you need to take on your MSc programme, you cannot apply for a credit transfer.
Courses from a bachelor’s degree cannot be part of both your bachelor and MSc degree. A credit transfer only involves courses at a similar level.
